Here's some of the first of my Death Guard. I freely admit that the Chaplain looks a little goofy, the sculpt is prehistoric and he was painted mostly for the fun of it. Happy with how the tactical guys ended up through.

Woah, the Iron Circle are already in the red book. Randomly opened the IW section and stumbled on them. Also IF phalanx warders have lost their +1 I, replaced by +1 WS. Dorn and Mortarion now strike at initiative. Mango Polo fucked around with this message at 21:44 on Feb 6, 2016 |

Hey Mango Polo. I asked last page but it probably got lost in the shuffle but is the new Word Bearers Rite of War the rumored one that makes Gal Vorbak troops?Galaspar posted:Here's some of the first of my Death Guard. Today is a good day for Heresy!

The second DA and first BA ROWs are pretty excellent. White Scars ROW just owns bones. Iron Circle seems worse than just getting x2 castellax.

Cythereal posted:Isn't their legion-specific wargear really good, though? Who knows? It depends on the availability of that stuff. I do like that they have the 40k Blades of Caliban (Calibanite warblades) and the Monster Hunter relic (Terranic greatsword) as weapon options. The warblade is probably a bit more available, but I can see the greatsword as HQ only or even just for Praetors at which point why even bother. That plasma repeater is cool, but watch it be a terminator heavy weapon option or something.

There was a rumor of more daemons being pulled into with the bad guys... any news on that? Specifically Emp Children? Otherwise the new Kakaphoni rules makes them almost as good as a volkite support squad! Good try at least?

Recoome posted:The new Emperor's Children RoW is awesome, if only to have fuckloads of guys with Sonic Shriekers. They don't really need it though. Our characters have to issue challenges and get +1I, and our close combat schtick is to stack combat res so even if we lose 3-to-1 models we still end up winning combat by 2 and sweeping.

Dorn lost unwieldy, making him decent in close combat. You can take phalanx warders as troops, any infantry unit can buy teleport arrays for a cost, units gain shrouded the turn they arrive via teleport array, plus enemy units with LoS and within 12" of the teleporting unit must take a blind test at the of the phase. Pretty good. Ultramarines have a ROW where they must take a Cult/Milita allied detachment with gene-crafted and warrior discipline provenances. All infantry units in the allied detachment gain infiltrator and implacable advance. Recon marines lose 'support squad' rule. Seems decent if you build your allied detachment around the infiltration.

forkis posted:Supposedly! This is the bit of text I've seen posted around elsewhere about it. Interesting. Sounds like a cool mixed force. Since there are no new units for most of the Legions, I'm guessing we haven't seen any Raptor-sign yet? I'd love some loyalist mutants.

In light of the recent new rules, how would you guys recommend running a Blood Angels Veteran Tactical squad? I was thinking a couple of meltas and around 3-4 power weapons, maybe a power axe + melta bombs on the sergeant? I'm not sure the Hand Flamer or Inferno Pistol are worth 15 points.

I dunno. Mango is our man once he wakes up.

Assault cannon on the rhino, and either assault cannons, plasma, melta, or heavy bolter snipers on the squad. It depends on what you want them to do. The hand weapons are not worth it probably ever.

Assault cannon heavy support squad. ALL OF THE ASSAULT CANNONS. Tyrant siege terminators got switched to heavy support I knew there was something fishy with no negatives so far, it couldn't be a proper forgeworld release Hencoe fucked around with this message at 05:18 on Feb 7, 2016 |

You are alright by me BULBASAUR. I am pretty disappointed with the change for the Tyrant Siege Terminators to HS, although I guess it stops them from being the default replacement for regular Terminators (and overused in Golg-centered lists). I thought them being in the Elite slot was thematically appropriate but I guess they thought it was a major problem. e: Hencoe posted:Couldnt tell you, I dont have the red book, it got posted on the internet. This is exactly my thinking, I think it sucks and it really fits in with the Iron Warriors mentality. I mean, we have a cool RoW now which is extremely thematic and on the other we lost a valuable pushing unit (Siege Terminators) which would've worked well with that particular RoW. I'm extremely salty about it because I had a neat list which doesn't actually work now that Tyrants are HS. Recoome fucked around with this message at 05:52 on Feb 7, 2016 |

Also I don't have a source, but I'm hearing that Emperor's Children have some rule changes. I haven't seen the source material so prob wrong. That there's "Flawless Execution" which is +1 I on the charge unless making a disordered charge. Sonic Shriekers now also cause -1 WS on base contact, but doesn't work if you are immune to fear. Also Kakophoni's sonic blasters are Heavy 2 now. If this is true, then Emperor's Children got really good

No brother so pure, no hatred so salty Its a bummer, yeah. Just when things are looking up too. FW is a bit heavy handed when they nerf something that people use a lot. Poor old cybernetica is a good example. They went from being amazing to one of the worst admech lists... and they still keep nerfing them. Meanwhile ordinator now owns bones. I would be pissed if that poo poo invalidated my army list and you totally should be. At least we got a solid ROW with a ton of options. There are so many options I can't even wrap my head around it yet. Most likely Tyrants lead by a Siege Breaker are going to be a big part of it the core. e: Fingers crossed for changes to IW special equipment and core rules BULBASAUR fucked around with this message at 06:10 on Feb 7, 2016 |
